Cornelia was in the sitting-room, fab? ricating something marvelous in tho way ol a nosegay. Earl bad brought the flowers while the ladies were dressing. Of course, Juliet had to have a bouquet, too, so it was a quarter ol an hour before tho party were actually seated in the car? riage. "Verily, we will be fashionably late to? night." observed Cornelia,' "but where is Mr. Von Oppenheim? I'll ran to the drawing-room and tell him we are wait? ing." "He is not in the drawing-room," said Riobard; "so yon may save yourself the trouble. I expect he has gone on before, j Cornelia, and, by this time, is, no doubt, swimming around the room with Blancho , Babbitt in his arm?. It is something odd, how that fellow adores waltzing, especially with 'snow-drop Blanche,' as he affectionately calls Miss Babbitt. Did you ever see anything to equal it-eh, Coroelia?" "I do hate you, Richard," was Corne? lia's-polite rejoinder; "cordially hate you. Yon have a knack at making your? self disagreeable which I never saw equaled." "We are coasins-german, you know," Haggested Riobard. "I'm sorry for it," replied the young lady. "And I tell you, again, I heartily detest yon. I wish yon hud remained at your own home, instead of coming here to spoil our Christmas fan with your abominable teasing and your hateful, prying ways." "Keep cool! keep cooli" advised Ri? chard. -'You are not remarkably good looking, when you are in a passion, and yon would hardly fanoy being a wall? flower to-night." "Are we to sit here all night?" impa tiently asked Cornelia, not deigning n reply to her cousin's last remark. Juliet lcanod from the carriage win? dow, and asked the driver if he had seen anything of Mr. Von Oppenheim. "Yes," the driver reported; "Mr. Von Oppenheim had come down the front steps, some little time before, and walked toward the front, gate. Daddy Sancho had called, and asked if he were not going to rido with the ladies, -whereupon he said he was tired waiting and pre? ferred to walk." "I told yon so," said tho tantalizing Riobard; "little snow-drop Blanche hud better look out, or she will have her eyes scratched by a certain envious rival." BB ' "There is mnoh more likelihood of yburs being scratched ont," proclaimed Cornelia; ,"I wish to heaven I had the strength-I'd pitch you head-foremost from the carriage." These threatening words, instead of intimidating Mr. Riobard Thurlow, amused him so excessively, he laughed at and tormented his enraged relativo until the carriage pulled up at Judge Babbitt's door. About 1 o'clock in the morning, tho yoong professor for the first time en? tered the ball-room. Blanche Babbitt was standing near the door, and imme? diately accosted him, asking why ho was so late. He muttered some excuses, and, to cover their awkwardness, asked her for a dance. "You do not deserve one," declared Blanche, "and I don't think I have one to give you, if you did. My card ir; fit!!, I believe." Blanche was a great favorite with the yoong professor. She was an eminently attractive girl, with winning manners, and repnlod to be .tho most graceful dancer in the place. Mr. Von Oppen? heim complained of tho heat of thc rooms und offered his arm to his com? panion, to promenade on the piazza. There was another coaple walking up and dows, and ono glance showed Earl Juliet and Harry Babbitt. "Where on earth have yon two been all this time?" asked Harry, as they possod each other near one of the windows. "That is oar own secret," answered Karl, declining a chat and walking on. They had only taken a few tarns on the piazza, when waltzing began. Karl per? suaded his companion to go in and join in the danoo, which they did, keeping tap the enrapturing frWrlntil Blanche's partner came forward and asserted bis prior claim to ber hand. Looking aroaad the room in a searching way, Karl per? ceived Cornelia, the object of his soarob, on the opposite side of the apartment. Making his way to ber, he said: "I oome aa a suppliant Cornelia-give me as many dances as you can. Toa have not certainly been so cruel BS to re? tain none free for me." "I have a great mind not to speak to yon," said Cornelia, angrily, "and I wouldn't danoo with you i your life de? pended on it." "Heaven above!'' exclaimed Karl, "what have I done to' bring down snob thunders of wrath upon my devoted head? It is unmerited, I assure you. How have I offended yon so dreadfully, Cornelia?" "Your failing to remember tho offence only makes me more furious," and Cor? nelia bit her lips until tho blood almost came. "Is it-is it my unpardonable neg-in? attention this evening?" "You may well say unpardonable," answered Cornelia, scarcely able to speak from anger. "In all my life, I never knew a gentlemau to gain a lady's per? mission to eficort her to tho suppor-table at a ball, and then bo non esl at thc right moment." "I beg yon a .thousand pardons," said Karl, tho thing flashing across him for the first time. "To tell you tho truth, Cornelia, I have been outside all the evening, and" "You need not try to hoax me with that sort of stuff," exclaimed tho young lady, pettishly; "you'vo been in the other parlor, dancing with Blanche, and out on the piazza, promenading with her all night." "Upon my word, Cornelia, you ave mistaken. I tell you, truly, I haven't boen in the room half an hour and have scarcely spoken a dozen words to Miss Blanohe. I met her near tba door, when I was looking for yon. Politeness re? quired me to pay my compliments to her-in her own house. And will you not be generous, and pardon my negli? gence about the supper, when I assure you, I have been feeling extremely un? well, all night? I was Bullering BO much, I conld not stand the stifling heat in the rooms, and that is why I forgot my en? gagement with you." Cornelia looked np iu his haggard faco and his restless eyes. "You do look very ill," she said, kind? ly; "oould I do anything to relieve yon? I can easily get any restoratives you would like, from Blanche or Mrs. Bab? bitt-what can I do?" "You can forgive mc," answered Karl, "and that will relieve me more than any? thing else. Will you, Cornelia?" "Certainly, Mr. Von Oppenheim, if you did not intend it as a slight." She waltzed with him, promenaded, waltzed again, and then they took pos? session of a sofa in one corner of the room. "So you think Juliet is engaged to Harry Babbitt?" inquired Karl. "Can there be a doubt of it?" replied Cornelia. "He has been perfect devo? tion all the evening, and now look at them;" and Cornelia pointed across to the couple. Harry wus leaning over Ju? liet in a frenzy of admiration, and her face was animated, bright and sparkling. Karl looked at them and the blood rush? ed to his face-he could scarcely conceal tho fierce, inward struggle, tho hurricane of jealousy which swept across his being. He could not look at them-ho removed his glanoe. "They are a perfect picture of two en? amored lovers, " contiuued Cornelia. "I am pretty sure she loves him, although Richard says, she's engaged to somo Frank or other. Binjour ?oull X'veiust thought of it-it is Frank Clayborn-he orites ts? ber- copsftsatij;--it eas- fee so . "Do you think she would be BO dis? honorable a? io plight her troth to two at once!*" inquired Karl, hoarsely. TO BE CONTINUED. Ammoniated Soluble PHOSPHATE, Manufactured by the Navassa Guano Co..

E?IWAN GUANOS, Soluble Manures and Sulphuric Acid, MANUFACTURED at Charleston, under the direction of Dr. N. A. PRATT, Chemist for tho Sulphuric Acid and Super-Phosphato Companv. Miiiii?i.h PHOSPHORIC ACID, in the form of SOLUBLE PI?O?PHAI E OF LIME, or DISSOLVED BONE PHOSPHATE, is the basis of all good Fertilizers, and thee? arc valuable in tho ratio of Soluble l'hosphoric Acid which is in thom. The immenao deposits of Phosphoric Guanos Which were discovered in 1867 in South Caro? lina, hy Dr. PRATT, consists mainly of Insoluble Phosphate of Lime, which is made available as a Fertilizer by boing ground to powder, and reduced by Sulphuric Acid to such a condition as to make ita insoluble phosphate soluble in wator, and thus made capable of being taken up hy growing plants. Tho insoluble Phosphate found in any commercial Fertilizer is of no more valne to the plant than the original Phosphate rock. Tho greater tho proportion of this Soluble Phosphate which any Fertilizer contains, tho less thc quantity required per acre, and consequently tho cheap? st Fertilizor is that containing thc highest "per centage of b'oluhle Phosphate. Impressed with these truths, the Sulphuric Acid ami Super-Phosphate Company have erected at Charleston, tho tirst extensive Acid Chambors South of Baltimore, and are ablo to ott'-r to planters the highest per ccntago of Solnble Phosphate of Lime known in any market. Their Fertilizers aro offered under two forms: 1. Bttwan, No. 1-PURE SOLUBLE PHOSPHATE, gnaranteod to contain 24 per cent, of Dissolved Bone Phosphate of Limo, 160 per ton, 10 per cont, discount for cash. ?. Btlwan. No. ?.-PERUVIAN SUPER-PHOSPHATE, guaranteed to contain 20 per cent, of Dissolved Bone Phosphate, and i j to 8 per cent, of Ammonia, with a sufficient addition of Peruvian Guano to adapt it to all Crops, $70 per ton. 10 per cent, discount for cash. wa ALSO OFFER : DISSOLVED BONE, of high grado, for planters or manufacturers, who may desire to mix into any other compost, and we niggest that this is the best and cheapest method for manu? facturers to transport the Sulphuric Acid contained in the mixture. Will be sold at fixed rate for each per centage. [Jan 1 Smo] WM. 6. BBSS ?fe CO. Agenta. P.. O'NEALR & SON, Agent?, Columbia. No. 14 Adgcr'e Wharf, Charleston, B.
